“I am so glad you people were able to come,” Isabella smiled brightly as she welcomed Susan and her family.
“So we are really here after everything Jason did to our daughter,” Marcus mind linked to his wife.
Susan smiled and turned to look at him, before also replying through the mind link,
“Stay away from this please, don’t get involved.”
Marcus looked at his wife and shook his head slightly. His wife was very stubborn and whatever she wanted, she made sure to get it.
She was someone people dreaded to offend but right now, they were talking about Jason-: The strongest and it was deadly to have a fight with him.
Jacinta just sat quiet, observing. They were in the dining waiting for Jason and the other to arrive before they started eating.
What was Jason doing inside with that lady?
Were they kissing? What was going on?
Those were the thought that ran through Jacinta’s mind. She knew she wasn’t supposed to be jealous, but she just couldn’t get over Jason. She was going to make that useless girl look like a bad person before everyone.
Just then, Jason, Ariella, and Daisy were seen descending from the stairs. Ariella had a straight face while Jason kept smiling while looking at her admiringly.
Even the workers in the castle could notice the intense love Jason had for Ariella.
“I see you both don’t have manners, how dare you make the elderly wait for you on the dining? You guys came from a place where manners are not taught,” Jacinta spat out, immediately Ariella and Daisy got close to the dining.
“It’s okay darling, they are new here, with time they’ll learn the tradition of this kingdom,” Susan spoke calmly all smiles staring particularly at Ariella.
“We sincerely apologize for keeping you all waiting,” Daisy bowed to Isabella, thoroughly ignoring Susan and her daughter.
Ariella, Daisy, and Jason sat down and the chefs began to serve the food. It was time to pour out the wine when suddenly Susan interrupted,
“I’ll pour out the wine please,” She Said and the chef allowed her to do as she pleased.
Susan stood up gracefully and started to pour out the wine one after the other on each glass cup.
Ariella shifted uncomfortably where she sat because she could sense evil intentions from Susan as she got close to her.
Susan got in front of Ariella and poured the wine into the glass cup in front of her. After pouring the wine, Susan pretended to lose balance and intentionally turned the whole content of the bottle on Ariella’s dress, drenching her with the wine.
“Are you okay? Oh my God, I’m so sorry,” Susan pretended to be sorry and made to use her hands to clean Ariella’s dress when Ariella stopped her.
“It’s okay, it was just an accident,” Ariella supported, even though she knew Susan intentionally did what she did.
“Are you okay?” Jason asked concerned, his hand on her shoulder.
Ariella was taken aback at how fast he got to her side. She didn’t know that he activated his inhumane speed. He was initially seated close to his mother.
“Let’s go clean up your dress in the bathroom,” Jason offered his hand, but Ariella turned it down by lightly shaking her head.
Jacinta looked at both of them with jealousy in her eyes. This was what she always wanted, but Jason was giving it to someone else that wasn’t her.
“I’ll help you out, I know my way around the house,” Jacinta offered, smiling mischievously, and Ariella couldn’t turn her down.
As they walked through the hallway, both of them stayed quiet, finally they got to the visitor’s bathroom and entered.
Ariella would have been awed by the equipment she was seeing, but she had already seen them in Jason’s room, and she was still having some trouble in using them.
“Can you please help me turn on the water?” Ariella pleaded softly with Jacinta.
Jacinta felt insulted. Was she crazy to ask her for help? She wasn’t her help.
“After snatching my man, you still want me to help you? You must be mad,” Jacinta threw at Ariella, and Arielle just kept mute. She knew Jacinta had an ulterior motive, that was why she followed her to the bathroom.
“Okay, then” Ariella said, somehow she got lucky and turned on the tap and the water began to flow. She was already gently scrubbing her ruined dress when she felt her hair being pulled.
Ariella groaned in pain as she struggled. Ariella was doing all she could not to create a scene by shouting, so she only made a muffled sound.
“Who are you, and where did you even come from? Don’t answer that, I don’t want to know. You ruined my wedding by just appearing on that day.”
“Go back to where you came from now that you can, or you’ll die by my hands, you wretched thing.”
As Jacinta spoke, she used the other hand that was free and removed something from her hair, she placed what she removed on Ariella’s hair and Ariella was oblivious of everything happening behind her.
Jason waited and waited for his mate to return, but they didn’t. He kept hissing while waiting until he couldn’t take it anymore. He stood up and went to search for her.
Jason knew Jacinta had a bad intention towards Ariella, that was why she offered to help her out in the bathroom.
He needed to see if his woman was safe. Jason got to the visitor’s bathroom and opened the door without it making a noise, what Jason saw almost made him mad.
Ariella tried to break free from Jacinta, but she tightened her grip even more on Ariella’s hair.
Ariella, who initially made up her mind to stay silent, regardless of what Jacinta tells her, became outraged when her hair was pulled.
Ariel’s eyes began to turn into an orange-like color like that of a fire and fire formed in her two hands, she was at the verge of attacking when she heard a hard slam.
“Are you mad?” Jason roared as she held Jacinta tightly on her neck and pinned her to the wall.
Ariella was thankful he showed up, if not, she might have burned the whole house down. Jason showed up in time to stop her, she really didn’t know how to control her new additional powers.
Rage filled Jason’s eyes, he could kill anyone for his mate. Anyone who touched his mate was asking for a battle with him.
“Are you dumb? Answer me!” Jason yelled, but Jacinta kept struggling to answer, but couldn’t because the grip of Jason on her neck was so tight.
Ariella saw how hard Jacinta was trying to breathe, decided to step in.
“It’s okay. Please calm down, I am fine,” Ariella pleaded softly.
Jason, who was ready to devour Jacinta, couldn’t resist his mate’s soothing voice, so he released Jacinta.
Jacinta held her neck and coughed repeatedly, but none of them minded her.
Jason and Ariella walked out of the bathroom and bumped into Daisy at the entrance.
“What took you guys so long in there?” Daisy yelled, looking at them with suspiciously.
“The stain on the dress refused to clean, so we were struggling to remove the stain,” Ariella lied. She knew Daisy could get mad and cause harm to Jacinta if she told her what happened, so she lied.
“Oh… That’s not a problem honey,” Daisy said smiling and with just a snap of the finger, Ariella’s dress became good as new again.
“Oh my God! Wait! You were the one who made my ripped gown whole again the day I was to showcase my power, right?” Ariella was excited because she loved this gown so much among the many others that were bought for her by Jason.
“I forgive you for lying not to be the one who made the dress whole that day,” Ariella continued and embraced Daisy in a hug.
While they hugged, Daisy noticed something in Ariella’s hair and removed it.
It was a small hair pin!
What was it doing in Ariella’s hair. It wasn’t hers, and it didn’t look new, if not, Daisy would have concluded Jason bought it for her.
Luckily, Daisy found a trash can around after they disengaged from the hug and threw the pin into it.
